Microsoft Agent Example.wbt

Keywords: 	  microsoft agent example.wbt

;********************************************************************************
; Microsoft Agent Example
;
; Requires:
; Microsoft Agent
; Merlin character
; (optional) Lernout & Hauspie TruVoice TTS engine - American english
; 
; Downloaded from:
; Microsoft Agent: http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/agent2/msagent.exe
; Various Character files: http://www.microsoft.com/msagent/downloads/user.asp#character
; For this example download the Merlin character.
; Text To Speach engine files: http://www.microsoft.com/msagent/downloads/user.asp#tts
;
; Notes: Install the SAPI 4.0 runtime support below if you are using the Windows XP operating 
;        system and intend to use any of the speech components here with Microsoft Agent.
;
;        Also, install this SAPI 4.0 runtime support if you intend to use the L&H TTS3000 
;        engines with the Microsoft Agent Genie, Merlin, Peedy and Robby characters. These 
;        characters are compiled to use the L&H TruVoice engine as the default speech output engine 
;        and the SAPI 4.0a runtime is necessary to set these characters' TTSModeID property to use 
;        the TTS3000 engines. Other Microsoft Agent characters may also require this SAPI 4.0 runtime 
;        support to set their TTSModeID property.
